Title: Alabama spring football news and notes
Post by: pmull on March 28, 2011, 08:25:17 AM
TUSCALOOSA -- Nick Saban's voice sounded a little raspy Saturday after the completion of Alabama's first week of practice.

He said the Crimson Tide has shown improvement, but noted passing and catching the football had been an issue. Saturday's indoor practice helped eliminate the wind, and Saban credited the receivers with making progress.

Saban said the defensive line needs to show more physical toughness this week, and he praised the offensive line.

"The offensive line has done a pretty good job of getting a hat on a hat, blocking people and finishing, and the runners have done a good job of finding the holes, so that has been a good thing," Saban said.

WHAT'S NEXT? Alabama will hold its fifth spring practice Monday afternoon, its third in full pads. Alabama will practice three times this week before holding its first scrimmage Saturday afternoon.
